This is a dish inspired by Southern Chinese island, Hainan – the Hawaii of China. People think that Chinese food is greasy but this dish shows it can be super light and delicious. Hainan Chicken is a dish served all over Asia and traditionally a whole chicken is used and is served with rice. I’m turning it on its head and serving it as a noodle soup. Instead of using the whole chicken, I use chicken thighs – inexpensive to chicken breast and juicy. Poach the chicken thighs in the aromatic liquid to create a spiced ginger chicken broth. Wok-fry a gingery, spring onion, and green chilli Chinese salsa Verde, shred the chicken with fresh spinach, beansprouts served over edamame noodles. Light, healthy and nutritious!
